Is There Anybody Out There (2023) with Q and A
Presented by Big Picture Show/Moving Pictures
“A refreshingly honest exploration of ableism” – Sight and Sound
Nominated for awards at Sundance and the BAFTAS, this deeply intimate documentary presents a first-hand account of living with disability. Filmmaker Ella Glendining develops a spirited conversation about her own disability and ableism in society, as well as representation within the film industry and on screen. Filmed over a number of years and through the pandemic, Glendining‘s humanity and uncompromising self-respect is an inspiration as she shares her platform with others - even those she disagrees with - to explore the challenges of her lived experience with grace, space and revolutionary zeal. We're delighted to be joined by Ella for a post screening Q&A where we'll talk to this rising star about the film’s impact, her life, career and the future.
